Sophie Dekkers, easyJet’s UK director, said: “We’re pleased to be putting our peak summer period on sale for our passengers today, allowing them to take advantage of our lowest fares to the sun, cities and beaches across Europe.

“With our low fares, friendly service and allocated seating, it’s clear why families are continuing to return to easyJet for their holidays.”

“With our record 700+ routes on sale, passengers have more choice than ever on where to spend their summer break.

“easyJet flies to popular summer sun destinations at high frequencies during the summer period because this allows travellers to depart on the day they prefer and choose the length of holiday to suit them.

“We expect the bucket and spade routes to Spain, Portugal and the Greek Islands to be as popular as ever, or for late summer sun, Turkey, Egypt and The Canaries will be in demand.”

In addition to a leading leisure proposition, easyJet means business when it comes to business travel.

Last month easyJet launched its first ever TV campaign targeted to business travellers. Passengers travelling for business now account for more than a fifth of easyJet’s passengers with more than 12 million choosing the airline every year - and that number continues to grow.
